Welcome to a free guided tour in the group show Tongues of Fire, Saturday 4, 1.30 pm, at Kunsthall Trondheim.
The guided tour will be held in Norwegian.
In response to our home building's former life as a fire station, and Trondheim's history as a city shaped by blazes whose traces are still present in its design today, this group exhibition brings together artists who have been deeply touched and transformed through the challenges manifest in the burnt and burning. Hailing from diverse generations and backgrounds, these individuals converge to explore how flames have served as agents of change across time and space.
The participating artists are Anna-Kaisa Ant-Wuorinen, John Gerrard, Noémie Goudal, Lungiswa Gqunta, Agnieszka Kurant, Ana Mendieta, Tuda Muda, Tuan Andrew Nguyen, Gala Porras-Kim, The Atlas Group in collaboration with Walid Raad, Hannah Ryggen, Sin Wai Kin, and Thu Van Tran.
The exhibition tour will be held by one of the curators, Katrine Elise Agpalza Pedersen.
Welcome!
